Maybe, but that is too much work, especially if the problem occurs regularly because you have a slow connection. Email with attachments is such a universal Internet event that I expect by this time that such 30-year (at least!) old technology as resumed file transfers would have found their way and become part (transparent and automatic) of the process. Or am I expecting too much? Obet On Thu, 21 Jul 2016 03:23:15 +0000 Gideon Guillen <gideon_l...@thegidz.org> wrote: > As others have mentioned, there is no transfer resume for SMTP or POP3.
